The People Of Arkansas.

The people are as hospitable as Arabs.
They will sleep on the floor to give you
bed and kill their last fowl for your sup
ser. They are royalty generous with
r:ieir pittance, like all primitive people.
IEcy can rico end fight and tell the truth
like the ancient Persians; though, to be
sIre, the truth gets Il little FLIP some
times when they are recounting their ex-
PLOTS around the store stove. Like the
Irish and the Highlander, they have
SORT of innate politeness; a cracker, here,
$ familiar but he is never rude; he simply
'egards himself as any mans equal and
al black mems superior. The people are
gtoics, in their way; they bear innumer
able privations and sicken and die, finally,
as patiently and dumbly as their horses.
Then Marion will make cypress coffin,
covered with black calico, and they will
be buried. Perhaps stray circuit rider
may say prayer over the open grave;
more likely there will be as little cere-
nlouy with the burial as there was be-
fore.

make him him tell where he had hidden

in subsistence. Now suppose this court, having
no jurisdiction, had expressed an opinion on the
subject, the Senate would not have been bound
to respect the opinion, nor the House either.
Good sense again, and good law, too. even if it
is obiter. OF course. the Senate wou.d not have
respected the opinion moment if it had not
been to its liking, for it disregarded the opinion
that was given according to law and was bind
ing. When the Judge adds such a decision
would settle nothing" he is hard or the Sentinel
that had so deyoutv prayed that the cowar,.ly
souls of the judges might all go to sheol for a

In short, the Judge is hard on the whole posse

hit them. There is even funny side to this
affair leastwise il would be funny if it were not
so cruel The funny part is to see Green Smith
kicked twice out of court and then kicked again
when he tried to get back once more and then
kicked after he is out finally. and there is where
the cruelty comes in. The Judge does not say
bad words. but he evidently thinks them as he
withdraws his number ten judicial boot from the

That Obiter Dictnm Business.

To the Editor Of the indianapolis Journal
AS rule, an obiter dictum is fraud, bet it
occasionally affords opportunity for judge
to ease himself and to get off a good thing in
sly way, as in the obiter delivered few days
ago by Judge Niblack in the Green Smith affair.
After agreeing with all the other members of
the court that they had no jurisdiction in the
case. he ventures obiter as to the real status
of the matter in controversy. He SAYS:
1.-The Attorney general is the law officer of
the State provided for such purposes He is
charged with the duty of giving advisory opin-
IONS" That is good sense and good law, even if
il is obiter. Then. after reclting the facts that
the Attorney general advised election; that
the Governor. acting on that advise, issued the
proper proclamation; that an election was held.
and SO on he goes on with more cbiter the sub
lance of which is that such proceeding is bind
ing upon all good citizens until i. is declared
void by some court having proper jurisdiction, but
that the Senate chose to arbitrarily disregard the
Governor and his legal advisor. and then adds

Baltimore American.
These beautiful days Mrs. Cleveland always
enjoys riding about in an open victoria. In the
morning, while her husband is toiling and work
ing upstairs in his library. his beautiful wife
orders the carriage and goes for drive. Since
her mother has been out West, Mrs Cleveland
has not gone out to Red Top, but has driven
about the smooth streets of the city. The other
day Englshman was walking on the street
when the White House carriage came along, and
he saw Mrs. Cleveland for the first time. The
fresh air had made her cheeks red and rosy, and
she looked very beautiful
The Englishman was struck by her beauty
and exclaimed:
''Ah She is pretty. By far pretter than the
pictures offered for sale in the London shops
She has the Dudley cast of countenance-that
refined and stately beauty which has made the
Dudley beauty famous. No wonder you Amer-
cans are proud of her.

miles east Of Ell Paso, Mccartney was Mortified
to find that his father-in-law, who slept in the

searched in vain. Mr.. Mccartney telegraphed
back for the employees of the next section of the
excursion train TO watch for the missing man
along the track. They did so, and found him
about ten miles east of Sierra Blanca There
he lay in the sand. his left arm badly broken by
his fall. and so badly lacerated that the bone
protruded through the flesh. He had also suf-
fered internal injuries. He was thinly clad, and
had nearly frozen IN the chill night air, but was
still conscious, though he soon became coma

died on Saturday afternoon. 1t is supposed he
tried to enter the closet, mistook the door and
stepped out on the platform and WAS at once
thrown off by the motion of the cars.

Increased Wages Granted.

PHILADELPHIA, March 1.-The wages of the
employees of the Philadelphia & Reading Rail-
road Company in this city will be increased
from to Is per cent. The increase begins to-
day and will affect about five hundred men, ex-
elusive of those at Port Richmond and the
freight and coal-handlers at the depots. This
action of the company is the result of confer
ence which was held on Saturday between an
arbitration board representing the employees and
General Superintendent Sweigard 1t is under
stood that a similar advance Of wages will be
granted the employees at other points along the
road 1t has just been made known, too. that
the coal and freight-handlers at Port Richmond
were advanced per cent at the beginning of
the year. This fact has been kept carefully con-
ceaied until now, both sides having pledged
themselves to keep it quiet.
